Discover ProjectWise, powered by iTwin
Connected Data Centric Collaboration for Road and Bridges
Bentley has extended the digital capabilities of ProjectWise, now powered by iTwin, from engineering work-in-progress to full digital delivery for more efficient, collaborative, and sustainable road and bridge infrastructure design, construction and operations.

Providing safe and convenient access by road is still one of the key drivers for development and economic growth in many areas. Often placed within challenging terrain or faced with design constraints, road operators and their supply chain are under pressure to complete these complex projects with tight timescales, workforce shortages, and environmental considerations.
IMPROVE COLLABORATION
With many existing projects having been delivered using 2D drawings and paper-based reviews, when road and bridge operators and their supply chain come to update existing infrastructure, they struggle to find the right information, or communicate effectively across their disparate teams.
INCREASE EFFICIENCY
Organizations who have started their digital transformation benefit not only from improved efficiencies across projects, but also from greater insights across their programs, which feed back into organizational goals, such as reducing carbon emissions.
Read here how our Road and Bridge users have realised the following benefits from using ProjectWise:
20%
improvement in design efficiencies
BECA / NEW ZEALAND TRANSPORT AGENCY
35%
reduction in
modelling time
FERROVIAL / TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
50%
more efficient data

NATIONAL HIGHWAYS / A303
Takitimu North Link
BECA / NEW ZEALAND TRANSPORT AGENCY
Beca is lead design consultant on the Takitimu North Link project for Waka Kotahi (New Zealand Transport Agency).
They wanted to implement an integrated, model-based digital approach to address the site complexities and coordinate the large, multidiscipline project team.
Through collaborative digital modeling and 3D visualization, they reduced modeling time by 15% and improved design efficiencies by 20%, and reduced the project's carbon footprint while achieving higher-quality deliverables compared to previous design methods.
I35 NEX Central Project
Ferrovial / Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT)
To provide extra capacity, Texas Department of Transportation initiated a USD 1.45 billion project to construct a viaduct that will add three lanes in each direction to the I35 Northeast Expansion (NEX) corridor.
To overcome the challenges of working in a tight space while integrating the complex bridge structure with existing utilities and infrastructure, Ferrovial chose ProjectWise and iTwin platform to improve information exchange with over 300,00 documents shared, and develop a digital twin.
They performed clash detection to eliminate 3,530 collisions, identified and resolved visibility issues, and provided the construction team with precise material information, saving significant time and costs.
A303 COMPLEX INFRASTRUCTURE PROGRAMME
NATIONAL HIGHWAYS
National Highways piloted ProjectWise and iTwin to exchange and manage design data on the culturally and environmentally sensitive GBP 1.7BN A303 (Stonehenge) project.
The integrated digital solution provided a collaborative, web-accessible platform to bring together all their data and images from various silos and from across the supply chain into a single solution with automated design review workflows.
This halved the time it took teams to access and search for data, promoting the re-use of data, and resulted in a 50% more efficient data federation process and streamlined transmittals process by 70%, mitigating labor intensive tasks.
Key ways ProjectWise can help you
Bring real world context to your projects by combining engineering and reality data in your models, for instance sharing simulation of the driver experience. Designs can be quickly optimized and validated, with reviewers performing virtual interactive walk-throughs, querying model information, and analyzing embedded property data, simply by using a web browser.
Collaborate with supply chain partners using clearly defined data access, roles and tasks lists to maintain consistency across fluid teams.
